Elastic has introduced the Elastic AI SOC Engine (EASE), which aims to enhance security operations by integrating advanced AI capabilities into existing SIEM and EDR systems without requiring a full migration to next-generation solutions. EASE helps security analysts detect hidden, complex threats more efficiently by reducing investigation time and alert fatigue through intelligent AI-driven alert correlation. It offers agentless integration with third-party platforms like Splunk, Google Security, Microsoft Sentinel, and others, allowing immediate application of AI analysis to alerts. The system provides a context-aware AI assistant that enriches investigations with organization-specific knowledge, supporting natural language queries and enhancing response workflows. Additionally, EASE offers transparent AI with model flexibility, operational metrics for tracking efficiency gains, and automated response actions to accelerate threat containment. This solution allows security teams to improve threat detection, reduce response times, and enhance security posture while maintaining current investments, with the option to transition fully to Elastic's open, AI-driven SIEM in the future.
